Question

Add Signature to PDF via the API

Hey Community, 

I am reviewing the Adobe Sign api, and can not find a specific end point for what I want to accomplish. 

I am using a form tool specifically to gather user data, when they complete the form from the tool I am using, I want to make an api call specifically to apply a signture of the user that filled out the form to my pdf through the API and I was wondering how to do that? 

Anything helps, if you have python examples of this even better!

Thank you!

You can't programmatically apply a signature using Acrobat Sign. Plus, you don't really want to do that. Your code doesn't have the required intent to make the signature binding. Remember the 2010 United States foreclosure crisis that was caused by robo-signing documents? I suggest you rethink your workflow.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
